The portable storage device that holds the least amount of data currently is the 3. 5 inch floppy diskette with its 1. 44 MB capacity. The almost completely extinct 5. 25 inch floppies used to hold even less data; 360 KB.
A data storage device is anything that will hold computer files, from the old days of magnetic tape to today's portable USB drives. Well, it depends on how much data you want to store.
